Hiya

I still get that now and i get pains in my tummy.

If you are concernd phone up you doctor and explaine things to him/her.
but i think your ok it just takes so long for things to settle down.

What maybe happening is ...

Your taking 200mg of iron or around that , and this can make you constipated or at least slow things down.

But you have got to a point where its had enough of being inside and is just coming out and its pale because it been in your gut for so long and the way your gut consumes it. alot like baby poo sometimes it will be green aswell.

As long as its not a black tar color then your ok give it a day or 2 and stay away from red meats or any fiber.

maybe drink a little orange juice to help flush it all out. then see how it is.
If your still ill and or in pain speak to the doc.

start taking a spoon of benefibre daily. It is tasteless, you just stir it into a drink (hot or cold). It keeps you regular and honestly does work.

I find if I miss mine for a couple of days I get like you are.

What iron tablets are you on? If it's ferrous sulphate ask your gp to put you on ferrous fumerate sugar free syrup instead, much easier on the bowels.

I hope you feel better soon. I have been having the same problems over the last couple of days. it comes and goes and doesn't seem to be dependant on what i eat. My GP did remind me that i could also get a stomach bug like everyone else!!! forgot that i could get normal bugs and assumed it was down to the bypass. hope you feel better x

Go to the chemist and buy some sea sickness tablets . the doctor will have no problems for you doing this . and my doctor said to me it was a very good idea and then gave me some " maxolon 10mg (metolopramide hydrochloride bp) which is a stronger type . taking these took my morning sickness away


hope it helps

I was like that before I sorted out the iron, lots of light headed spells, and lots of nausea. Are you taking iron supplements yet and if so which ones?

 

[Melting Mama]

thanks all the iron i am on is ferrous sulphate 200mg one twice a day

I'd suggest changing to ferrous fumerate sugar free syrup. All ferrous sulphate is sugar coated, so your new insides might not be breaking it down properly.
